AO-27 has been put back in operation by the control team for the ascending nodes. They report that they have placed a new schedule on-board but the Orbital Time from the satellite seems to be about two minutes early compared to the website and my control software.They really need any reports of any unexpected or off-schedule times when the transponder changes mode. They ask that you try to get as close to the second as you can and make sure your clock is calibrated closly to GPS or some other time source. Please let the control team know how good you think your clock is. Times in UTC will help.
The control team has lowered the watchdog timers in order to keep the on times longer but with the current way the satellite is timing they don''''''''t know for sure. Remember that the satellite is in it''''''''s time of greatest eclipse this time of year.
